Shiho Miyano (宮野 志保 Miyano Shiho?) is a former Black Organization researcher codenamed "Sherry" who was working on APTX 4869. After the Organization killed her sister, she took APTX 4869 to commit suicide but shrank instead. She fled the Organization and now currently goes under the alias of Ai Haibara.

Background

Search team were sent to Kudo's house to investigate.

Shiho Miyano and her older sister, Akemi Miyano were born into the secret crime syndicate known unofficially as the Black Organization. Shiho's English mother, Elena Miyano, and Japanese father, Atsushi Miyano were both were important researchers for the Organization. They both died in what other members of the Organization described as an accident while Shiho was very young.

While Akemi lived a normal life, Shiho was sent to America as a small child to go to school and was groomed to finish her parents' research on APTX 4869.[3]. Most of her time in America was lonely; she ate lunch alone, and was otherwise isolated from peers for being different. Despite the difficult social situation, Shiho was an academic prodigy, and by the age of thirteen she was working as a highly ranked scientist for the Organization.[4] Her codename in the Organization is "Sherry", after the alcoholic drink.

Shiho was about 18 years old when she developed the most current incarnation of the experimental test compound APTX 4869. Although it was not her intended purpose[5], she discovered that it could be used as a poison to kill without leaving any traces of itself in a body. While researching its effects, Shiho noticed that one of her lab mice had become younger after being given the drug instead of dying. Meanwhile, the Black Organization started using APTX 4869 to commit untraceable murders.

After the death of her sister at the hands of Gin, she later escaped the Organization after she took APTX 4869 to commit suicide but shrank instead to elementary school child age. She was found and adopted by Hiroshi Agasa and began living under the alias Ai Haibara.

Personality

Initially, Shiho was very cynical which was reflected in her valuing her own security above idealistic principles of justice. She also did not wish to become close to others. While schooling in America, she ate lunch alone. It was only by repeatedly approaching her that the Detective Boys and Ran finally become her friends. Shiho was also untrusting of others in general, and preferred to put on an expressionless, cold front while bottling up her pain and sadness. Shiho's views about death were complex and at times contradictory. She was prepared to likely kill Kichiro Numabuchi with APTX 4869 as part of her tests, but on the other hand, she detested the Organization's use of APTX as a killing tool and Conan labeling her as a murderer.

Shiho speaks very formally.

Changes as Ai Haibara

Her time Ai Haibara has softened her personality, made her more optimistic and open to Conan's idealistic pursuit of justice.

Appearance

Shiho is a thin woman of average height with naturally wavy auburn hair at mid neck length. Although she is multiracial, she is Japanese looking.

Abilities and skills

Biochemistry

Shiho is a biochemical genius, taking up her parents' research work on APTX 4869 for the Organization by at the age of thirteen after going to school in America.

Medical knowledge

Shiho has demonstrated knowledge of medicine, recognizing the symptoms of Shiratori's subdural hematoma.[6] Using knowledge of osteology, she also is able to deduce a long decayed woman's ambulatory condition.[7]

"Black Organization sense"

Shiho has the ability to sense when Black Organization members are around, which she characterizes as their unique "smell" or "pressure". So far, her sense only detects Black Organization members and not people with malevolent intent generally,[8] however it doesn't always trigger when Black Organization members are present[9] nor does it reveal their numbers.[10] Sometimes the sense is fleeting (Okiya), or context sensitive (when Akemi was planning the bank robbery).

Pain tolerance

Like other Black Organization members, Shiho has also demonstrated a strong tolerance for pain. She climbs up a chimney while extremely sick from the effects of Baijiu-induced regrowth. She then crawls back to the chimney after she is shot multiple times by Gin on the frigid snowy roof. She still maintains consciousness after falling down the chimney and experiencing the agony of reverting back to Ai Haibara. Nowhere during this ordeal or her rescue afterwards did she cry from the pain.

Plot overview

Prior to Escape

After being orphaned by the death of her parents at a very young age, Shiho was groomed to take over their APTX 4869 research project. She was educated overseas in America before returning to Japan at or before she was 13. She became a high ranking member, codenamed Shiho, in the Organization's internal drug development division.[11] Around the time when she was 13, undercover FBI agent Shuichi Akai, using the alias Dai Moroboshi, began dating Shiho's sister Akemi Miyano in order use Shiho's rank to his advantage while infiltrating the Organization.

During the 5+ years Shiho worked in the Organization lab, Akemi lived a more-or-less normal life compared to Shiho's secluded position. Akemi would occasionally meet with Shiho to chat as sisters and send Shiho floppies of pictures of her travels and friends which Shiho would try to look at. During this time, Shiho accidentally mailed a disk of extremely sensitive information back to Akemi by mistake. The disk eventually would up in the hands of Akemi's professor friend Masami Hirota.

Closer to the beginning of the current timeline, Shiho Miyano was ordered to test the most recent version of APTX 4869 on Kichiro Numabuchi, a failed assassin. Shiho received the data about him, but he managed to escape the Organization before she could test it on him. Shiho fled the Organization herself soon after, so her superiors never found a substitute test subject. Shinichi Kudo wound up being the first test subject of APTX 4869 according to Gin who decided to use the newly approved poison to kill him after Shinichi witnessed a Black Organization transaction.

Unaware of the APTX 4869's rare side effect when they used it on Shinichi Kudo, the Organization ordered a search for him because his body had not been found. Shiho searched Shinichi's house twice after he had been shrunk to confirm his death for the Black Organization. She began to suspect Shinichi's transformation after she searched his house for a second time and found that his clothes from primary school were missing. Shiho then confirmed him as deceased so the organization would not look into the matter further and kill him after all.

Meanwhile, Shiho's sister, Akemi Miyano, wished that she and Shiho could leave the Organization. The Organization itself was in an awkward position as Akemi had associated closely with the FBI spy Shuichi Akai, but could not kill her because that would jeopardize the loyalty of Shiho, who was valuable to the Organization's research efforts. The Organization came up with a trap for Akemi; they told her she could leave the Organization with Shiho if she could rob 10 billion yen from a bank for them. The Organization expected her to fail which would give them the excuse to eliminate her while keeping Shiho loyal; however Akemi succeeded, but Gin killed her anyway. This caused Shiho to boycott ...


Around the same time Akemi began making plans to get Shiho and herself out of the Organization....

Escape From the Black Organization

Shiho swallows the APTX 4869

Shiho was unhappy that the Black Organization was using the incomplete APTX 4869 for killing purposes.

in addition to her open questioning pertaining to the murder of her sister, Akemi Miyano, resulted in her imprisonment and scheduled execution by the Black Organization. With no other way out, she took a pill of APTX 4869 to commit suicide, but instead shrunk into a seven or eight year old girl. In her new smaller body, she escaped from the Black Organization and attempted to reach Shinichi's house, hoping he may be able to help her. Exhausted, she collapsed in front of Kudo's house, where she was found by Professor Agasa, who eventually adopted her.[12] In fact, as it turned out later, Agasa had known her parents - especially her father, Atsushi Miyano -, personally, even though he didn't know at that time that they've had children.[13][14]

As Ai Haibara

Reunion with the Black Organization

Much expansion goes here

File:Sherry shot 1.JPG
Shiho shot by Gin.

In episode 176-178, Conan encounters Gin and Vodka again. Ai is kidnapped and confined to a wine cellar, but turns into an adult after she drinks baijiu. Despite wearing glasses and janitor clothing, Gin and Vodka recognize her and shoot her repeatedly until Conan appears. He shoots Gin with his needle, but Gin doesn't fall asleep. He tells Ai to jump into the chimmey, and Vodka shoots at him, but he gets away. Gin purposely shoots himself in the arm due to trying to stay awake. Inside, Pisco almost kills her, but Conan rescues her after Pisco accidentally causes a fire. Gin kills Pisco for failure before he's able to tell him the truth about Shiho. Worried that the organization is after her, Ai decides to leave the city.

Relationships analysis

Family & Friends

Akemi Miyano

The Black Organization

Gin

Gin has an abnormal attachment for Shiho and seems to enjoy hunting for her, while she hates him. They may have had a romantic relationship in the past.[15]

Vodka

Shiho and Vodka have met and are acquaintances.[15]

Vermouth

Vermouth and Shiho have some connection, although it has not been elaborated on. Shiho fears Vermouth more than other Black Organization members except perhaps Gin. Shiho was Vermouth's target, but Vermouth gave up on her after Conan's intervention. If Shiho was in a romantic relationship with Gin, then Vermouth and Shiho were love rivals as Vermouth was in a sexual relationship with Gin.[15]

Shuichi Akai

Shuichi Akai and Shiho are likely to have known each other via Akemi Miyano whom Akai was dating. Shiho knew Akai under his alias "Dai Moroboshi", but it is not known if she was aware of his defection and allegiance to the FBI. As Haibara, she is still afraid of and senses the "Black Organization aura" from Akai. Akai recognizes Haibara as Shiho, saying he is not willing to face her yet, likely over guilt related incidents culminating in Akemi's death.
